Kemp, Jr., Diagnosed with Graves' Disease
SEATTLE – University of Washington head coach Lorenzo Romar has announced that junior forward Shawn Kemp, Jr., has been diagnosed with Graves' disease, an autoimmune disease affecting the thyroid. The junior, who missed the majority of preseason training due to the illness, started to develop symptoms in late July before being officially diagnosed in early September.
Kemp Jr., will continue to play for the Huskies during the 2013-14 season. Medical staff treating Kemp, Jr., do not expect the disease to continue to affect his on-court performance once his treatment plan, which he started following his diagnosis, is in full effect.
He's seen action in 60 career games, including 19 starts, and is averaging 3.9 career points and 1.9 rebounds.

Roberto Di Matteo has insisted Chelsea are already a global superpower, regardless of whether they win the Champions League.
The Blues will reach their sixth semi-final in nine seasons in Europe's premier club competition if they avoid defeat against Benfica on Wednesday night, but with all-conquering Barcelona up next - never mind a potential final against Real Madrid or Bayern Munich - they have never faced a taller order.
But interim manager Di Matteo claimed their domestic trophy haul during the Roman Abramovich era qualified them to sit at Europe's top table, and said: "If you look at the last decade of this club, it's become a domestic and international force."

From Forbes
When we teach our introductory entrepreneurship class at MIT, we take it for granted that each of our 75 students will be able to start an American company upon graduating.
But many of them lack one thing they need to be able to do so—permission from the United States government to continue working in our country.
In this academic year, three in 10 MIT students, including four in 10 graduate students, are not U.S. citizens or permanent residents. So for them our entrepreneurship class is likely to remain just an academic exercise. Their student visas expire when they graduate, leaving them with two options, to leave the country or find an existing company to sponsor them for a chance at an H-1B visa.

Habitat management "is basic to wildlife enterprises," says wildlife biologist Russell Stevens, and without it, landowners hoping to add a wildlife management dimension to their farming or ranching operation will be hard-pressed to provide the kind of experience hunters, fishermen, even bird watchers, are willing to pay for.
A wildlife and range specialist at the Noble Foundation, Ardmore, Okla., Stevens says a landowner might be able to do something with pen-raised and released animals on marginal wildlife habitat, but for native wildlife such as whitetail deer, bobwhite quail, and turkey, he has to have the proper habitat — more than a monoculture of bermudagrass or other forage crop."
A combination of uncertain income from traditional agricultural enterprises and a burgeoning demand for outdoor recreation make wildlife management a promising enterprise for landowners, he notes. But a successful operation takes more than declaring a ranch available for lease, guided hunts, or other recreational use.
"Good wildlife habitat includes native rangeland, with a mixture of native grasses and forbs (broadleaved herbaceous plants), brush, and/or timber."
Maintaining an adequate amount of forbs may mean changes in weed control practices for ranchers, Stevens says. "Many ranchers spray every year to kill weeds, but some of those weed species provide excellent food for wildlife."
He says Illinois bundleflower, partridge pea, tick clover, and western ragweed, among others, provide excellent food and cover for birds and mammals, such as bobwhite quail, wild turkey, and deer.
"Most legumes (forbs) are also good, and offer both direct and indirect food sources for quail. The birds can eat the seed produced by forbs, and plant communities dominated by forbs provide excellent 'bugging grounds,' areas that attract a lot of insects. Quail and turkey, especially their poults, rely on insects as a source of protein. Many species of forbs are a very important food source for whitetail deer as well."
Stevens says ranchers interested in implementing a wildlife enterprise must strive to manage for a balance between wildlife and cattle to make the best use of the land. "They can't maximize one without sacrificing the other. But a rancher can manage his acreage to accommodate cattle and wildlife."
Income from wildlife can make a significant contribution to the overall operation. "It's not uncommon for deer leases to generate $10 per acre in north-central Texas. It takes about 10 acres per animal unit on well managed rangeland in north-central Texas."
A landowner can net about $100 from wildlife off the same acreage he needs to raise one cow. But each has a place, and that's where attention to management details comes in. "Stocking rate is important," Stevens says. "Overstocking cattle will reduce habitat quality for most species of wildlife. Also, ranchers trying to enhance wildlife habitat have to re-think weed and brush control."
But with those changes come potential savings. Instead of annual herbicide applications to maximize forage production for cattle, prescribed burns and a well planned, flexible grazing plan can improve or maintain wildlife.
"Also, ranchers need to familiarize themselves with the different habitat requirements for whitetail deer, bobwhite quail, and turkey, and strive to meet the needs of the target species in their management plan. Depending on the species, ranchers must maintain varying amounts of brush or timber that's well-distributed throughout their property to provide adequate cover and additional food sources."
He says a mix of native forage and timberland offers a good opportunity to develop wildlife. Water becomes important as well, for both cattle and deer. "Typically, within a 100-mile radius of Ardmore, water rarely is a limiting factor for ranching or wildlife habitat. But farther west, developing water sources may be more important."
Stevens says ranchers who have concentrated their management on cattle for years by converting native grass to monocultures of bermudagrass, fescue, etc., and eliminating brush and timber, may have a bigger challenge bringing land back to a more wildlife-friendly place than for a rancher who has maintained property in rangeland with a good mix of brush and/or timber.
"The first step would be to have a wildlife biologist evaluate the property," Stevens says. "The worst case would be acreage with mostly bermudagrass pastures, with little brushland or timber. The rancher who has concentrated on keeping pastures clean may have a difficult time bringing it back to a more usable condition for wildlife."
In many instances, improving rangeland for many species of wildlife, specifically bobwhite quail, may require stocking cattle numbers at a rate below the optimum carrying capacity for the ranch. Cutting back on cattle numbers allows the landowner more management options to meet habitat requirements for bobwhite quail and other wildlife species.
"Established bermudagrass also provides significant challenges, since it competes aggressively with other plants and is hard to take out." Ranchers who have a combination of bermudagrass and timber often leave the timber unmanaged. If needed, a combination of tools such as prescribed burning, chemical, and mechanical treatments can help improve unmanaged timberland and create openings to allow more plant diversity.
"That will enhance wildlife habitat," Stevens says. Landowners often plant food plots to improve wildlife nutrition, especially for deer in an effort to increase growth rate and antler size.
"Food plots are commonly used, but are very much misunderstood. A food plot is not a cure-all for wildlife habitat management. We focus on establishing and maintaining native plant populations, first and foremost. Native plants, in the right abundance and balance, provide good wildlife habitat and often exceed nutrient requirements for whitetail deer. In this situation, free-ranging deer need little else.
Stevens says a big problem with food plots is that in years when they are most needed, ranchers can't grow them. The same adverse conditions to which native plants are adapted limits potential for food plots. Deer feeders also may get more credit than they deserve for putting more weight and bigger antlers on free-ranging deer. "The problem is that it is very expensive to establish enough food plots or put out enough feeders in a free-ranging situation to supplement each deer in the herd. We might see increased body weights and bigger racks on a few deer that routinely use the feeders."
But for the entire herd, the advantage is often minimal in a free-ranging situation. Wildlife needs space to thrive, Stevens says. "Improving deer population parameters such as buck-to-doe ratio, buck age structure, and deer density is difficult for a landowner with less than 2,000 acres. Without adequate room, deer are susceptible to getting shot on a neighbor's property."
Stevens says deer management cooperatives may provide a solution for landowners with limited acreage. Several property owners with limited acreage but with like-minded deer population goals may cooperate in a management program to achieve those goals for deer and other wildlife. In Southern Oklahoma and Northeast Texas, deer offer the most potential for profitable wildlife enterprises. "But a bobwhite quail lease is a highly-sought commodity as well. Those leases are becoming harder and harder to find."
He doesn't recommend that landowners alter property to attract feral hogs. "I wouldn't encourage anyone to manage acreage to attract hogs. The negative ecological impact they have on land can be significant and they're hard to eradicate once established. But, they do offer a hunting opportunity, and if landowners have hogs on their property, they can trap and shoot them, or they can lease hunting rights and turn a liability into an asset." Landowners should not rule out fishing leases either, Stevens says.
"Watersheds or ponds, with good fishing opportunities, can bring additional income. Some fishing clubs look for these resources and may pay for daily or seasonal fishing rights, structured so there is minimal time required by the landowner, and where the landowner reserves the right to stop fishing activities if clients do not respect property rights or ignore safety issues.
"Most clubs will remove members for breaking rules."
Stevens says landowners interested in enhancing wildlife habitat should contact a knowledgeable wildlife biologist. He suggests his organization, The Noble Foundation, as well as the State Departments of Wildlife, the Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS), Cooperative Extension Service, and private wildlife consultants.
He also recommends the Noble Foundation's Web site, www.noble.org, as a good starting place for information on wildlife and livestock enterprises, as well as a place to market hunting, fishing, and other recreational opportunities.

Several Flyers said their brawl in a blowout loss against Washington on Friday has unified the team and served as a much-needed spark and rallying cry.
The Flyers received lots of negative national coverage for the four simultaneously fights - one in which Ray Emery pummeled the opposing goalie, Washington's Braden Holtby, who didn't want to participate. The fights occurred eight seconds after visiting Washington took a 7-0 third-period lead.
Left winger Scott Hartnell said the team "fed off" the brawl and it carried into Saturday's 1-0 win in New Jersey, a game in which the Flyers (4-9) allowed just 14 shots and had no turnovers.
"Obviously, fighting is part of the game. It's been a while since you see three or four fights in one stoppage and a goalie going down and attacking another team's goalie," Hartnell said after Monday's practice in Voorhees. "People are all over Razor [Emery] for doing that.
"But look what he did. He played solid for us and got us a shutout. We were excited. Even though the crowd booed us the whole game, it felt like a win after that little scrum. We love it, fans love it here in Philly. It's part of our heritage. We definitely fed off it. We got to keep doing it. We can't win one and lose two every time. It's got to continue."
"You can definitely build from that. It's team bonding," forward Vinny Lecavalier said of the carryover effect from the brawl. "You see your teammates going at it and they played a great game that next game and did other things to play as a team. Hopefully, it will snowball and we'll start a streak here and get going."
Lecavalier suffered facial injuries - believed to his mouth - while fighting the Caps' Steve Oleksy on Friday and did not play Saturday. He will return to the lineup Tuesday in Carolina wearing a half shield, half cage. The Flyers will face a 4-7-3 Carolina team that has lost five straight - and has won just one of seven home games (1-3-3) this season, with the lone victory a 2-1 decision over the Flyers.
Coach Craig Berube is expected to keep Hal Gill and Andrej Meszaros as a defensive pair for the second straight game, which would make Luke Schenn and Erik Gustafsson healthy scratches.
"Anytime a team sticks together and does things like that - and cares about each other - good things happen after that," Berube said. "[But] we definitely have to play more consistent, better hockey to get on a roll."
Breakaways. Emery was at the White House Monday with his former team, the Blackhawks, who were honored for winning the Stanley Cup.....Steve Mason is expected to return to the nets Tuesday, though Berube said he was undecided.

Distressed Beijing-based holding company Anbang Insurance Group is set to sell its U.S. luxury hotel properties, which were purchased for US$ 5.5 billion from the Blackstone Group in 2016. This is a move to raise quick cash, following the firm's seizure at the hands of the Chinese government six months ago. Bids had already been ongoing for selected properties, including the famed Essex House Hotel, overlooking Manhattan's Central Park. The portfolio of hotels is strategically placed in geographically diverse regions, including Miami and Chicago. Anbang is looking to cash in on the properties quickly, as its properties in China are already being liquidated. [ Content protected for Sovereign Wealth Fund Institute Standard subscribers only.

Norway's Government Pension Fund Global (GPFG) returned 1.8% for the second quarter of 2018. Listed equity investments generated a 2.7% return for the period, while fixed income returned 0%. Unlisted real estate investments posted a 1.9% return for the second quarter. In addition, the Norwegian krone depreciated against the U.S. dollar during the quarter. Furthermore, 2 billion NOK was withdrawn from the fund.
"North American and European stocks had a positive development in the quarter despite the prospect of increased trade barriers. This made a positive contribution to the fund's return," says Trond Grande, Deputy CEO of Norges Bank Investment Management, according to the press release.

The series made typical reality show challenges seem like child's play, placing contestants — mostly aspiring comedians — in outrageous situations that pushed the limits of their physical and mental endurance. Below, Mr. Toshio Tsuchiya, Denpa Shonen's producer, tells us more about the series. This week, you can catch the start another installment of the series, R-Mania, on Hulu. In this round, two comedians who think they're on their way to dinner are blindfolded and whisked away to a deserted island. You can check out the first episode here:
How did Denpa Shonen start out?
Up to that point, programs were basically scripted, meaning the performers and crew knew exactly what was going to happen in the show. I broke that mold by venturing into the ground-breaking territory of unscripted programming, which turned out to be Denpa Shonen.
The show started out by catching celebrities off-guard, without scheduling prior appointments or obtaining their permission, and asking them to do something for us. In the third year of the show, we moved on to other projects.
In 1996, we chose "journey" as the theme for "Saruganseki Hitchhikes across Eurasia." Through the camera, we shared the numerous difficulties the contestants experienced and all the many people they met along the way as they traveled toward their goal.
Their journey was unscripted and a real-life story. The obstacles that the performers experienced were overwhelming. As they were placed in extreme situations and their inner spirit was tested, they seemed to forget about the camera and acting, and allowed their human sides to be revealed. This is the essence of the show.
A thought occurred to me: What would happen if we took the concept of "journey" and transferred the setting from the outdoors to a room? This was the beginning of a project revolving around Nasubi, whose sole interaction would be with people who came to visit his room, like deliverymen. His goal would be to earn a million yen by never leaving his room. How? By writing thousands of postcards to apply to sweepstakes. A similar concept was used for Funako.
Of all the episodes you produced, what was the craziest in terms of physically pushing yourselves, your crew or your talent?
Backing performers into a corner to experience harsh situations is a vital part of the project, but segments involving trips stand out the most.
One episode that comes to mind is when one of the performers (Itoh) almost died of dehydration out in the deserts of Africa during the shoot of Panyao's "Denpa Shonen's Journey to Africa & Europe." The cameraman, of course, accompanies the performers to document everything, but does not help or interact with the performers. The performers must complete the trip on their own without assistance from anyone. Panyao was the one who somehow found water to revive Itoh and probably saved his life. There was another incident where the cameraman lost the two guys in Africa for several days. White-knuckle incidents like these kept us on the edge of our seats until they reached their goal, which would be the first time we could let out a sigh of relief.
The project where Nasubi attempts to earn 1 million yen while being locked up naked in a room was based on the theme of "can someone actually earn a living off of sweepstakes?" For the 11 months that Nasubi spent trying to reach this goal, he did not take a single step outside. During this period, he plunged into despair, but because he was naked and had no clothes, he couldn't even run to the police for help.
Aside from the five minutes that Nasubi was able to interact with a delivery person, his 24 hours were spent writing out postcards by himself in a dead-silent room. Imagine the elation that overcame him during those valuable few minutes when he would feel his only connection to the outside world through talking to the delivery person and checking the contents of the packages he would receive. It was at that moment when he would burst with jubilation and even start dancing to express his happiness. It's in thrilling moments like these when we're given a glimpse into the true nature of humans. By the way, he didn't know the video was being broadcast, although he knew that he was on-camera the entire time. Day by day, he became unconscious of camera.
Any favorite episodes or moments?
It would have to be the moment Nasubi reached his goal. Actually, Nasubi himself didn't know what the goal was. He was clueless that his situation was being aired on TV and even more clueless that his room had secretly been transported to the stage of an assembly hall, where hundreds of people were waiting to see him and celebrate his accomplishment.
On cue, the roof of his prefab room was removed and the four walls fell down, suddenly revealing a very naked Nasubi in the spotlight on stage. He looked out at the sea of people and in that moment, he revealed a natural, basic human side to the cameras. No matter how many times I've watched his expression and reaction, I never get tired of it!
If you could say one thing to your fans in the US what would it be?
Reality shows in the U.S. and Japan differ in their production methods. In the States, you deal with performers who are conscious of appealing to the cameras, whereas in Japan, we take great care in having the performers completely forget that they're on camera. Here is one proven method: let's say we install a fixed camera somewhere and aim it at someone. We deliberately shut off the switch while the person is conscious of the camera. This could last for a month but, eventually, as the person gets tired of playing to the camera, we finally start shooting for real. Audiences enjoy this chance to observe the ultimate "bare-all" aspect of people.
What's next?
I'm working on the Kanpei Earth Marathon project which launched last December. A sixty-year-old actor and comedian, Kanpei Hazama, has just started on a two-and-a-half-year journey around the world on foot and by sail. He reached Los Angeles at the end of February and will be running 50 kilometers a day across the North American continent. We'll be updating Kanpei's daily challenges web site so you can share his experiences. Please check it out and cheer him on!

I purchased the Friend/Hearts & Mother/Daughter bracelets. I love all sets. Great colors and styles.
- January 28, 2018
I ordered the Inspiring Women Woven Bracelet - Hearts, but that is not what I received. Everything else in my order was perfect, but instead of this bracelet I ordered, I got one that is made from colorful beads and painted tubes strung on elastic. Not a bad bracelet, but not suitable for the person I planned to gift with the hearts bracelet. I had to scramble to find a different gift for her at the last minute. So disappointing.

Ambition Exceeds Grasp and Other Bullets
The Cubs Convention is a bit too fast and furious for me to cover as live as I thought I might (in part, I'll admit, because I'm a fan, and I'm having a great time – and I've already met so many awesome people), so I probably won't be able to do much in the way of a round-up until after the event. But, I don't want to shirk my duties entirely, so here is a quick set of Bullets…
- Starlin Castro, who did appear last night during the Opening Ceremonies of CubsCon, met with police late Thursday night for his long-awaited interview about sexual assault allegations dated back to September. Castro offered a statement on the matter, which is as much as he can do right now: "I personally, and through my attorneys, have fully cooperated with the police in this matter. Unfortunately I cannot address the matter further at this time while the investigation is taking place. I understand that being a member of the Cubs means being a hard worker on the field and a good citizen off the field, and I always want to carry myself in a way that exceeds high expectations."
- The Cubs are set to sign utility player Alfredo Amazega to a minor league deal, about which, more later in the weekend/early next week.
- The Yankees traded Jesus Montero, together with a prospect, to the Mariners for Michael Pineda, which is a bit of a bummer, because: (1) it definitely takes the Yankees out of the Matt Garza market, and (2) that's not really a huge return for Pineda, who might have more trade value than Garza.
- Speaking of Garza, he – who last night touched my friend's shoulder, who then touched my shoulder (transitive swoon!) – he says he's not too bothered by all of the trade rumors. "I really don't pay attention," Garza said Friday. "I've got way too many things going on. I work out three to four hours a day, and I've got three kids, and two go to school and I'm busy, busy, busy. Most of my focus is on getting ready for February." And Theo Epstein continued to do the complimentary, but kinda "selling" thing: "He's a rare, rare commodity — a top of the rotation type starter who has proven it in the [American League] East, he's proven it last year," Epstein said. "He's playoff proven. He's a guy who, when he has the ball, our team thinks we'll win that day and that's important."
- Buster Olney keeps attaching the Cubs' name to Prince Fielder rumors, which I almost don't even want to mention. It's very, very hard to see the Cubs having any interest at all in Fielder at this point, but I suppose if he came on a ridiculously team-friendly deal, the Cubs would have to listen. I don't see that happening, obviously.

Wilmington Housing Authority can't pay the $1.15 million balance that is due today.
A deal made a decade ago has stuck the Wilmington Housing Authority with a piece of land it can't pay for, has no immediate plans to develop and which may very well be in the way of a major thoroughfare scheduled for construction in six years. A short-term deal may buy the authority some time before defaulting on the 10-year-old purchase agreement, but it won't cure the bigger problem – lack of strong, competent leadership.
The authority has been paying interest only on a 46-acre piece of land near the Creekwood public housing development. Now it can't pay the $1.15 million balance that is due today.
The authority has paid almost $600,000 in interest and just $50,000 toward the principal. The owner is willing to renegotiate the deal to buy more time, but the agency has no immediate plans to put anything on it. Meanwhile, the N.C. Department of Transportation is eyeing the site for the extension of Independence Boulevard; that project is tentatively scheduled to begin in 2020.
Much of the blame for the current quandary can be attributed to questionable decisions the board made under former Executive Director Benjamin Quattlebaum. Those decisions included inappropriately spending money intended to help low-income residents rent housing in the private market on other things, including the down payment on the land in question and the purchase of Eastbrook apartments, the subject of many problems.
Quattlebaum and two other WHA executives were fired after a federal audit uncovered the unauthorized spending and other accountability problems.
The board replaced him with Michael Krause, who seemed knowledgeable about housing matters but who hid a serious personal problem that also should call into question his competence to lead. He was fired last year after being charged, for the second time in his four-year tenure at the WHA, with driving while impaired. The board has yet to replace him.
There is ample reason to question how well the authority has been managed. Despite a $16 million renovation of Creekwood, state inspectors found serious maintenance deficiencies, along with numerous cases in which residents were not taking care of their own apartments. The board evicted about two dozen tenants, and a recent inspection showed some improvement, but problems remain.
The housing board is not blameless in all this. It must take a more critical approach to choosing a new executive director and, more important, overseeing his activities. It is not micromanagement to expect accountability from a person in charge of a multimillion-dollar agency.
Nor is it a burden to comply with laws requiring government agencies to open their records and meetings to the public, as the board contended late last year in response to records requests. Officials estimate it would cost $125,000 to comply with North Carolina's public records law in fulfilling two requests. One was from the StarNews and the other from resident Napier Fuller.
Openness improves accountability. If the board is serious about restoring trust in an agency that needs to earn the public's goodwill, it should embrace transparency. It also should hold the next director's feet to the fire.
The fact that the board conducted its own director search rather than hire an outside firm offers reason for optimism – if the increased emphasis on scrutiny signals a new approach to oversight of the agency as a whole.

Rolla Municipal Utilities kept the electricity coming to you more than 99.9 percent of the time in 2012.
To be precise, the ASAI, or Average Service Availability Index was 99.978862 percent, according to the annual "Reliability Statistics" report prepared for the Board of Public Works.
"We had a very good year," said Operations Manager Tom Parker at Wednesday afternoon's meeting of the board.
Here are some more statistics:
The CAIDI, Customer Average Interruption Duration Index, which is the average number of minutes interrupted per interrupted customer: 62.91.
The SAIDI (long), System Average Interruption Duration Index (average minutes interrupted per customer for all customers): 111.37.
The SAIFI (long), System Average Interruption Frequency Index (number of long interruptions per customer for all customers): 1.92.
The SAIFI (short), or System Average Interruption Frequency Index (number of short interruptions per customer for all customers): 1.90.
So each customer, on average, had only about two long interruptions and two short interruptions. The long interruptions lasted, on average 111 minutes. The short interruptions were "blinks."
There were 111 outages in 2012, not counting the scheduled outages, down from 138 in 2011. Here's what caused them:
Supply to city: 2
Overhead equipment failure: 23
Underground equipment failure: 6
Weather: 34
Birds, animals, etc.: 14
Trees/vegetation: 2
Foreign interference: 3
Unknown; 26
Vehicle: 1.
The number of outages caused by birds and animals was double the 2011 figure. The number of unknown causes was up 136 percent from 11 the year before.
Parker said the "unknown" outages were also likely cause by birds and animals. Most of them occurred in the early morning and there were no reports from the public and no damage found. Most of the time, the power went out briefly and then the system reset itself.
"It was probably squirrels," Parker said. "Or birds."

The Taxing Conundrum of Too Big to Fail
Fixing the risks around Wall Street's too-big-to-fail problem tends to run into one stubborn hurdle: Risk is where the biggest opportunities for returns often lie.
The latest proposal to deal with it comes from House Ways and Means Chairman Rep. Dave Camp (R., Mich.), who recently advocated a new tax on the assets of America's biggest banks. By penalizing scale, this would in theory encourage banks to shrink, thereby making the risks inherent to them less systemic.
But like earlier, similar proposals, this one could have the unintended consequence of encouraging Wall Street to do what comes most naturally to it: take on more risk.
Rep. Camp's proposal shares some similarity with the "financial responsibility fee" called for by President Barack Obama in 2010. This would have required banks with consolidated net assets of more than $50 billion to pay a tax equal to 0.15% of leveraged assets. The latter subtracts Tier 1 capital and federally insured deposits from a bank's taxable assets, thereby rewarding banks that build up this kind of buffer.
Rep. Camp's tax would also focus on size, only more so, by dispensing with leverage as a criterion. It would impose a 0.35% excise tax on financial institutions' total assets in excess of $500 billion.
The differences on treatment of leverage means the two proposals would affect the country's biggest banks to different degrees. The Camp tax, for instance, would be far less costly to Goldman Sachs Group , Morgan Stanley and Citigroup than the president's. Goldman's insured deposit base is small, about one-fifteenth the size of Bank of America 's , while Citigroup has a lot of foreign deposits that wouldn't qualify for exclusion from its taxable assets.
The bigger point, though, is that either tax could encourage banks to take on more risks. Faced with an increased cost in holding a dollar's worth of assets, whichever way the balance sheet gets sliced up, banks would almost certainly seek out higher returns on each of those dollars. And the road to higher returns is nearly always paved with the stones of risk.
Rep. Camp's tax proposal looks set to meet the same fate as President Obama's; That is, it will likely take a permanent seat in legislative limbo. Investors should draw two things from this, though.
First, the seemingly straightforward tool of taxing size to reduce it faces an inherent problem in terms of optimizing the banking industry's risk to the wider economy.
Second, though, that problem means the eventual set of rules to deal with too-big-to-fail could take a more creative, or convoluted, form that investors aren't prepared for. And seeing the Republican chairman of one of the House's most powerful committees propose a tax on bank assets is a clear signal that Wall Street remains in the cross hairs.

THE KILLERS WAITED UNTIL DARK. ON JULY 22 OF LAST YEAR UNKNOWN ASSAILANTS CROUCHED IN THE FOREST, PREPARING TO EXECUTE A FAMILY OF GORILLAS. HIDDEN ON A SIDE SLOPE OF THE MIKENO VOLCANO IN EASTERN DEMOCRATIC REPUBLIC OF THE CONGO, ARMED WITH AUTOMATIC WEAPONS, THE KILLERS HAD HUNTED DOWN THE TWELVE-MEMBER RUGENDO FAMILY, WELL-KNOWN among tourists and well loved by the rangers of Virunga National Park. The patriarch of the gorilla family, a 500-pound silverback named Sen kwekwe, would have sensed that the assailants were near, perhaps wrin kling his wide, black nose at their unfortunate smell, but he would not have been alarmed. Senkwekwe had seen thousands of people and had come to accept their proximity as irritating but unavoidable. So habituated to humans was the Rugendo family that the gorillas would occasionally wander out of the forest into cornfields for an impromptu picnic, angering local farmers. Park rangers at the nearby Bukima barracks said they heard shots at eight that night. On foot patrol the next morning they found three female gorillas-Mburanumwe, Neza, and Safari-shot to death, with Safari's infant cowering nearby. The following day Senkwekwe was found dead: blasted through the chest that same night. Three weeks later the body of another Rugendo female, Macibiri, would be discovered, her infant presumed dead. Just a month earlier, two females and an infant from another gorilla group had been attacked. The rangers had found one of the females, shot execution style in the back of the head; her infant, still alive, was clinging to her dead mother's breast. The other female was never found. All told, seven Virunga mountain gorillas had been killed in less than two months. Brent Stirton's photographs of the dead creatures being car ried like royalty by weeping villagers ran in newspapers and magazines around the world. The murders of these intelligent, unassuming animals the park rangers refer to as "our brothers" ignited international outrage. There was no shortage of suspects. The gorillas share the park with tens of thousands of heavily armed soldiers engaged in a three-way guerrilla war between two rival militias and the Congolese army. The park is also home to poachers and hordes of illegal charcoal producers, and it is bor dered by subsistence farmers and vast refugee camps overflowing with families fleeing the bloodshed. Caught in this vortex of human misery, it would be a miracle if the animals remained unscathed. But who would kill gorillas in cold blood, and why? VIRUNGA GORILLAS 39

An Evening with Rudolf Friml
The Kansas City Public Library offers a musical retrospective of the works of celebrated Czech composer Rudolf Friml during a program led by music historian William Everett on Monday, May 4, at 6:30 p.m. at the Central Library, 14 W. 10th St.
A pioneer of the operetta during the 1920s, Friml composed works that earned international acclaim and would be adapted for the screen in the 1930s. As a piano student in Prague, he studied under Antonin Dvorak before establishing himself in New York City on Broadway with The Firefly (1912) and later Rose Marie (1924) and The Three Musketeers (1928).
In addition to Everett's comments on the life and work of the great composer, this program features vocal solos and duets taken from Friml's most important works as performed by students from the UMKC Conservatory of Music and Dance.
Everett is an associate professor of musicology at the Conservatory and is author of a new biography on Friml, the first book-length study of his multifaceted musical legacy. This program features contributions from fellow Conservatory faculty members Dale Morehouse and Anthony Humrichouser.
Admission is free. Click here or call 816.701.3407 to RSVP. Free parking is available in the Library District Parking Garage at 10th and Baltimore.
This presentation is co-sponsored by the UMKC Conservatory of Music and Dance.

Film Review: Anonymous
Speculating on whether Shakespeare actually penned the plays for which he is justifiably famous is the academic equivalent of wondering if Elvis is still alive. Famous people aren't allowed to simply expire—they must be resurrected via silly conspiracy theories concerning their life, their death and the veracity of both. Now, Roland Emmerich, the blockbuster filmmaker who gave us Stargate and Independence Day, weighs in on the Shakespeare conspiracy.

While shopping for groceries, on Sunday, I spotted a display of fresh blueberries that were on "special" at $6.00 for 18 ounces. I had just recorded an episode from America's Test kitchen on making perfect pie crust (using vodka) and blueberry pie. I was intrigued at the technique of mashing and cooking half the fresh blueberries, to release the pectin. Clever! The remaining blueberries are added "whole". The secret ingredient is to grate a Granny Smith apple, squeeze out the excess juice and adding that to the blueberries. The pectin from the apples would require less tapioca (or cornstarch) to be added-- thus, less risk of ending up with "concrete pie".
I followed the recipe to a "T"...well, I took one shortcut. I like making my own pie crusts, but I had a box of prepared pie crusts from Trader Joe's waiting to be used. It's a pretty darned good prepared pie crust, for times when you want to take short cuts.I served the pie with a scoop of homemade vanilla ice cream. As promised, the pie filling was firm, and not soupy. Overall, we liked the pie-- BUT, my family unanimously decided that we'd love this recipe even more with our beloved Olallieberries. It seems that the East Coast natives love blueberries the way that West Coast folks love Olallieberries (that are only native to us). Fortunately, I have some frozen olallies in our deep freeze. It looks like I'll have to plan another weekend to make my own pie crust and to repeat this successful recipe!
Blueberry Pie
from the Episode: The Best Blueberry Pie, America's Test Kitchen
This recipe was developed using fresh blueberries, but unthawed frozen blueberries (our favorite brands are Wyman's and Cascadian Farm) will work as well. In step 4, cook half the frozen berries over medium-high heat, without mashing, until reduced to 1 1/4 cups, 12 to 15 minutes. Grind the tapioca to a powder in a spice grinder or mini food processor. If using pearl tapioca, reduce the amount to 5 teaspoons. Vodka is essential to the texture of the crust and imparts no flavor; do not substitute.
A printable recipe card is at the end of this post.

Its present land
area is 564.12 square miles and the 2000 population
was 62,901. The act establishing the county provided
that the first court be held at the home of Joseph
Walker and the justices were to decide on the most
convenient place to hold succeeding courts until a
courthouse could be erected.
Commissioners were
named to select a place for the county seat. In 1781
an act was passed stating that the original act had
not been fully carried out and that the previous
commissioners had failed to erect a courthouse even
though they had selected the land of
Holland in the fork of Shepard's Creek. The act
authorized the commissioners to purchase fifty acres
of land from James Holland and erect the buildings.
In 1784 an act was passed which stated that the
place selected by the commissioners was not
convenient; therefore, new commissioners were named
to survey the county, locate the center, purchase
land and erect the public buildings. In 1787
Rutherford was established on the land purchased for
the county seat. Two acres were reserved for the
public buildings. Rutherfordton was incorporated in
1793 and is the county seat.
1791 parts of Rutherford County and Burke County
were combined to form Buncombe County. In 1841 parts
of Rutherford County and Lincoln County were
combined to form Cleveland County. In 1842
additional parts of Rutherford County and Burke
County were combined to form McDowell County.
Finally, in 1855 parts of Rutherford County and
Henderson County were combined to form Polk County.
Rutherford County was named for Griffith Rutherford,
a Provincial Congress member and Revolutionary
general. Many of the county's early settlers were
of Scotts-Irish origin from Pennsylvania.
